Join us for a fun time building birdhouses.  Socializing with refreshments begins at 6:00 and the meeting starts at 6:30.  After a brief update on chapter activities, this month’s program will focus on the ecology of some important cavity-nesting birds in our area with a hand’s-on birdhouse building workshop.

Keith Bruno and Herb Grover, with the assistance of Bill Breding and Jim Stevens, have put together birdhouse kits designed for chickadees and bluebirds that attendees can finish assembling at the meeting.   Charles Martinez has fabricated American Kestrel nest boxes with materials generously donated by Terry’s Ace Hardware.

For a nominal donation, you can take home a birdhouse that you have assembled.  We hope that you will provide a nesting space for birds.  Birdhouses not claimed will be donated to community organizations for placement in the community.  Tools and materials to assemble the birdhouses will be available, but you are encouraged to bring a cordless drill if you have one.

Audubon meetings are free and open to the public.  In appreciation for our meeting space, we ask that you bring a donation of non-perishable food for the Methodist Church Food Bank.
